Virtavia B-36H Peacemaker for MSFS 2020

Convair’s B-36 Peacemaker was called a ‘Megabomber’ when it was first introduced into service on August 28, 1947. An enormous aircraft, it was as complex as it was large. Its 28-cylinder R-4360 engines were the very height of piston technology, and with the addition of the jet pods to later marques to assist with takeoff and top speed, the aircraft became even more complicated. With its 19-foot propellers and six engines, it produced an Earth-shaking drone that could be felt from 40,000 feet. Produced in a wide variety of variants, including unarmed crew trainers, strategic bombers, and reconnaissance bombers, the type was manufactured for seven years. The last B-36 was delivered on August 18, 1954, and the ‘Big Stick’ was retired altogether on February 12, 1959.
